Marseille vs Angers Prediction & Betting Tips (4 October)

In the wake of PSG since the start of the season, Olympique de Marseille undoubtedly carried out the very bad operation of last weekend in Ligue 1 by suffering their first defeat of the season at Meinau against Strasbourg 1-0 . This setback has immediate consequences for the Phocaean club which saw the first two in the ranking, PSG and AS Monaco, take a 3-unit lead. This is a real poor performance and even a little surprise for the Olympians who had delivered very good performances in previous weeks. Indeed, they were rather convincing in winning against Toulouse 1-3, Nice 2-0 and especially Lyon 2-3 after having played almost the entire match outnumbered. On the Angers side, we are also right to look gloomy after a particularly difficult start to the season.

The Loire club, however, arrived with the wind in its sails following its very good performance in Ligue 2 last year but its momentum very quickly ran out of steam. As proof, Sco only took 2 points during the first 6 days and it is the only one not to have won yet this year in the elite. Last in the standings, the promoted side were able to hold off Strasbourg 1-1 and Nantes 1-1 before falling at home last Sunday against Reims 1-3.

The Zerbi coach still cannot count on replacement goalkeeper Ruben Blanco, the side Merlin and striker Moumbagna who will not be able to hold their place this weekend. Good news, however, for the Italian coach who finds the boss of his defense, Balerdi, who was suspended during the trip to Meinau on Sunday evening. The former Mbemba executive is still stuck in the loft. Author of very convincing first days with 5 goals scored in 3 matches, Greenwood has not scored in the last 3 days. The Brazilian Luis Henrique has 3 achievements. Against Strasbourg, midfielder Rabiot had his first minutes in the Olympian jersey and this time he could start in the heart of the game.

Loïs Diony, last year's top scorer with 15 goals in L2, is still plastered at the start of the season. He is not the only one since THE young defender Camara, former Rennais Hunou, former executives Ould Khaled and Niane and the Sabanovic side do not seem to fit into the plans of Alexandre Dujeux. Furthermore, the young striker Kalumba, the middle important Lopy and the full-back Ekomié are injured. At the front, Algerian playmaker Abdelli scored 2 of the 4 goals scored by his team this season. Against Reims, it was his compatriot Ferhat who had been able to save honor.
